It was the sculpture that first caught the eye for several of the villagers. When Soak Becomes Spill, a six-meter stainless steel bucket overflowing with pots and cooking utensils that had previously sat outside London's V&A, appeared in Braemar outside the defunct Invercauld Arms hotel in August. The rare work of art sparked some curiosity. 'Challenging,' was one local's remark.' Another said, 'Bizarre.' 'It's very different for Braemar,' Geva Blackett, a local councillor, said, "but that doesn't mean it's wrong." Just as well.

On the 12th of September, Doja Cat had the supernatural on her side at the 2023 MTV VMAs. Doja walked the red carpet in a see-through spiderweb dress by Monse ahead of her appearances on various singles, including "Paint the Town Red." Yu Jei Yen Textile's faux spiderwebs finished the Halloween ready ensemble, which was created by Laura Kim and Fernando J Garcia. The fabric gave the appearance that the rapper's gown had been meticulously crafted by scores of committed arachnids from afar. Brett Alan Nelson, her stylist, paired the look with transparent heels from Amina Muaddi and diamond jewelry from a number of jewelers, including Balenciaga, Yeprem, Nicole Rose Jewellery, Maria Tash, and Yessayan Jewellery.

CRAIG BROWN: There is a new craze in India for massive statues, the older and wider the better. A colossal sculpture of B.R.'s social reformer will be unveiled tomorrow. In Hyderabad, Ambedkar, 38 meters (125ft) high or 53 meters (174ft) including its base, will be unveiled. A helicopter would fly over it after its unveiling, showering it with flowers. In Mumbai, another monument, this time of Mr Ambedkar, is also under construction. It will be the third highest structure in the world at 137 meters (450 feet), with the Statue of Unity in Gujarat, which will scale to 240 meters (790 feet) including its huge pedestal. They all make Nelson's Column seem to be based on Polly Pocket's pencil. Nelson's statue itself, although it is 52 meters (169ft), is only about three times life-size.
